Left shift key is loose

\015 The left shift key is loose. It's still attached, but the right edge of the key is no longer attached to anything underneath. Is there an easy way to snap this key back down? It looks like there's a hinge setup, but I can't push it back into place. mine came completely off, how does it go back on, anyone figure that out yet?\015

Answers :

The keys on laptops are easy to break. Many times they become loose or broken during cleaning or even though normal wear if the computer is used a lot.\015\012\015\012If everything appears to be intact simply align the button directly over the area and apply a light, even pressure. This should snap it back into place. If you aren't comfortable doing this contact your local computer repair shop and have them take a look at it. Hope this helps!
